Chapter 475: Ask the soldiers for advice and gain a lot(1/4)

At noon, everyone hurriedly dealt with him.

While eating, Li Mengxi stopped his chopsticks and suddenly asked, "Where are the prisoners? Have the prisoners been fed?" He looked at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei sipped the porridge and said vaguely, "Women, children, old and weak, we gave them food last night.

As for the rest, let’s have a meal in the morning and evening, so don’t rush to feed them.”

Li Mengxi felt confident.

This method of dealing with prisoners is the method discussed some time ago.

When a prisoner is captured, it is better to starve the prisoner. If he is starved and has no strength, he will not have the strength to riot and rebel.

But there are shortcomings in this. It is okay if the young and the strong are hungry. What is he doing if the old, weak, women and children are hungry? Such vulnerable groups have no intention of rioting even if they are full.

The little baby was crying so hungry that he couldn't bear it.

While eating, Li Mengxi thought about what he had learned from his inspection in the morning. In this morning, he saw the south corner of the city wall from the north corner of the city wall, the siege ladder from the ditch, the siege spine from the city gate, and the urn city from outside the city.

I scanned the battlefield in the back.

There were countless problems discovered, and the gains after the war were naturally rich.

Go through everything you learned in the morning from beginning to end in your mind.

Li Mengxi put down the bowl and was about to speak. Guan Yu was adding rice next to him and immediately brought the porridge over. Li Mengxi protected the bowl and said, "Uh, no, I'm full."

Li Mengxi looked at Liu Bei and said, "In this attack on the city, there have been as many as three thousand soldiers. Why not follow the old method and ask the soldiers what they gained from attacking the city, so as to gather the wisdom of everyone?"

Liu Bei stopped his bowl, and Guan Yu, who was serving the porridge, also paused his spoon.

"Very good!" Liu Bei said.

"Very good!" Guan Yu also said.

Guan Yu was very convinced of the principle that "the wisdom of many is better than the wisdom of one person".

That was long ago.

When Zeng was practicing the formation by the river, he asked the soldiers to perform their own formation and then asked for strategies.

I thought that ordinary soldiers, who could not read Chinese characters, would have any insights.

However, there were fifty battle strategies that day, among which there were four ways to break the single cone formation.

The soldiers with swords and shields hit the spear formation left and right to open the way, broke the formation with swords on the ground, broke the formation with large rafters, and charged with cars to break the formation. These were all things I learned from ordinary soldiers that time.

Soldiers can also know the strategy of the formation, Guan Yu is convinced of this.

Liu Bei was also convinced.

Zhang Fei, on the other hand, had been leading scouts out for a long time and had only recently joined up with the Chinese army. At that time, Zhang Fei was not present at the formation along the river, nor at the numerous military constructions that followed.

Therefore, when Li Mengxi asked the pawns about military strategies, Zhang Fei sneered disdainfully, "What insights can a little pawn have?"

Li Mengxi immediately looked over.

Without Li Mengxi saying anything, Liu Bei put down his bowl and scolded Zhang Fei.

But looking at Zhang Fei's face, he didn't care.

It seems that only seeing is believing can Zhang Fei believe it, and all the pawns are extremely smart.

After agreeing on this matter, after lunch, when the sun was not shining so much, Liu Bei stood up and said, "Let's go, let's gather the people to ask for advice."

——

All the soldiers in the main camp and rest camp who participated in the siege yesterday were gathered together again.

All the soldiers didn't know what they meant, and they all thought that there was another war.

Liu Bei called all the centurions, twenty or thirty of them.

Call the centurions together and explain, "In a moment, you all go down and explain clearly. Yesterday's siege of the city, everyone experienced battles. If anyone has any ideas, whether it is a siege strategy or anything else, as long as it is useful, I will give you a big reward."

.”

After that, he glanced around and saw the centurions, most of whom were old men who had been promoted through military service. Liu Bei said, "You are all old men too. You should know what a good idea is, right? No need to elaborate any more, right?"

"

The centurions all nodded.

"Okay, then, go back and remember to explain everything clearly. After a few hours, you can share your thoughts with the soldiers under your command. Go ahead."

Then the centurions returned.

More than two thousand soldiers gathered together. When their respective centurions came back, they all asked if there was going to be a war.

A centurion immediately laughed, "What are we fighting for? The city has been captured, there is no war. Get up! Make room for me."

The corps commanders quickly cleared the ground.

After the centurion sat down, he scratched his head and thought for a while, "That's it. Let me tell you, Duke Xuande asked us to think of any good ways, and then we can receive the reward."

After speaking, many people were confused, "What is a good way?" someone asked.

The centurion also had a headache and kept scratching his head.

"I can't tell you what a good way is. Now, let me tell you about the good way I know."

Speaking of the past, the centurion had something to say. He was gearing up and spitting, "It was already early. You haven't come yet. At that time, we only had four or five hundred people. At that time, the military advisor also

Just arrived.

We are training troops by the river..."

This centurion was an old man from Zhuozhou. At that time, Guan Yu was training troops by the river, and when he first asked for advice, this centurion was there.

"... We collided with his gun array in a cone formation, but we couldn't collide with each other. Guess what? I was poked in the leg by the gun, and I tilted my side. Unexpectedly, I deflected the five or six guns next to me. Instead, I was knocked aside.

Break open the door.

The military advisor said that this was a way to break the formation.

The two shield-men don't rush forward, one bumps to the left and the other hits to the right, and they can create a gap in the gun array.

Because of this incident, I was promoted to corps commander at that time."

Speaking of the feat at that time, the centurion looked proud, "Do you understand?"

Seeing that his subordinates were still confused, the centurion added, "It's not just that. You just said that the gun was not good, the gun tip was stuck in the ground, and when you pulled it out, the gun tip fell off."

Speaking of which, you can also receive rewards.

Why? The superiors know that the gun head is easy to fall off, so when someone makes the gun barrel, they make it tighter. This is called improving armaments."

This centurion was conscientious and responsible, and carefully explained to his subordinates what was a good method and how to get rewards.

In fact, speaking of it, just stimulating the subjective initiative of the soldiers, inspiring them to think, and collecting combat opinions from ordinary soldiers seems simple, but in fact it is full of difficulties.

Because the atmosphere in the military has not yet been cultivated.

The rebel army expanded too quickly. From five hundred at the beginning, to a thousand when they left Zhuozhou, to two thousand, and now to three thousand, the strength of the army has expanded six times.

A large number of people simply don't know what it means to have a good way to get rewarded. They have no experience of thinking about it and getting rewarded.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Among the whole army, the earliest five hundred warriors from the countryside know best what this exchange of tricks for rewards is about.

This group of elderly volunteers are the most enthusiastic about active thinking and the most subjective and proactive people.

However, these people are too few.

Most soldiers actually have no subjective initiative.

Fortunately, the army now has a basic foundation, and the foundation is the small number of elderly rebels.

In the camp, the centurions were frothing and explaining to their subordinates that they should think more, regardless of whether they felt good or not, just say it, just say it, just in case Xuande and others thought it was a good idea.

In this way, a concept spread throughout the war camp.

All soldiers, no longer just a few veterans, everyone knows that anyone who has an idea can be rewarded as long as it can be used, and the reward is quite generous. Moreover, if someone's idea is used,

If you get promoted in the future, this person will be given priority.

The whole battalion of the war barracks initially mobilized their subjective initiative.

At one place, there was a hundred-man team. The boy laughed, he picked at his feet and said, "Then my shoes are not good. When I climbed the ladder, my shoes fell off and I almost fell. Is this considered a punishment?"

When the centurion heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "Forget it! I estimate that 90% of it can be calculated."

Everyone on the sidelines was in an uproar, does this count?

The kid picking his feet didn't expect it. He casually said that it was really the so-called "method". He was overjoyed and asked quickly, "Then how much reward can I get?"

The centurion said, "I don't know, but it won't be less."

This place is a microcosm of the entire military camp.

The entire battalion of soldiers, both new and veteran, were all thinking.

After waiting for half an hour, Liu Xuande came and said, "Come here, centurions, after gathering your thoughts!"

The centurions immediately stood up and asked questions one by one.
